Capcom exec Seth Killian has told D’toid that despite winning a BAFTA, Flock! was a disappointment for the company in terms of sales because it just did not “find it audience”.

Flock’s new season, Spring, is now available for download on PC and includes new improvements, six new levels, rabbits, carrots, and burrows.

Great. We all know what rabbits do in the spring.

Details:

• Rabbits: The cutest animal yet to be Flocked, they breed like crazy!
• Burrowing Tunnels: Rabbits need a home too, so we’ve given them some nice carrot patches to dig up… the resulting tunnel can transport any animal, multiplying the fun!
• Giant Carrot: This massive, succulent vegetable will get all the animals going hunger-mad, devouring it any chance they get. Pick this bad boy up, and watch as they follow you anywhere!
• New Campaign: Of course all these wonderful new features would be nothing without a few fiendish and fun levels to experience them on! 6 brand spanking new levels await to test your Flock! skills… if you get the best medals, you’ll unlock all these goodies plus two special trophy objects to put into your own levels!
• Level Editor tweaks: We’ve spent some time polishing up the Level Editor too, so if you’re a fan of making your own levels to share, or if this is your first time dabbling with our tools, then you’ll be sure to find it even easier than before!

You can get it through Steam or through Capcom here.

Flock! has a PC patch available for download via Capcom.

The fix list includes some of the strangest improvements we have ever seen:

Fixes:

• Async loading crash
• Windows vs fullscreen crash
• Leaderboards exploit

Improvements:

• Reduced time it takes for pigs to eat poo piles
• Increased total amount of boost for UFO
• Increased UFO speed when carrying objects

Get the patch over on the Capcom Unity blog.

Both Flock! and Puzzle Quest: Galactrix have been released on Xbox Live, costing 1,200 and 1,600 MS Points respectively.

Flock! looks awesome. So probably buy that. More here and here.

There’s a video of Blanka rolling around in some of Flock!’s sheepish puzzles on Unity. Looks fun. No really, it does.

Take a look.

The game’s out later this week for PC, 360 and PS3.

Click onward to watch. Poor little barnyard critters.

Thanks, D’toid.

Capcom’s released a new trailer for downloadable alien-based sheep-herder, Flock!

This one’s called “Seasons” and can be watched over on GamersHell.

The puzzler will be hitting PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 sometime next month.

Sorry. We couldn’t think of a headline “pun” involving the word “fuck”.

Capcom’s sheep-herding arcade alien thing, Flock!, will release on PC on April 7, Xbox Live April 8, and PSN on April 9, according to IGN.

The title puts you in a flying saucer equipped with an ovine-repelling beam of light, and puzzles are your crazy, freaking, moon-man business.

Don’t like the sound of it? Flock off, then.

Not content with giving us new Street Fighter IV, Dead Rising Wii and Resident Evil 5 media, Capcom has released a new trailer (after the link) and 25 new screenshots of its XBLA/PSN title, Flock.

Wanna make some crop circles and herd some sheep? Then Flock is for you.

Out next month. Check it all out.

IGN’s posted up screens and a movie of Flock!, the game Capcom first announced for an E3 showing earlier this week. Imagine our disappointment when it turned out to be some kind of sheep-based arcade-strategy thing with multiplayer elements, as opposed to a speech impedimentalised porn simulator. Imagine it.

Capcom has made first mention of a game called Flock via its blog, which will be shown next week at E3.

The following info’s ripped straight from the site. Playable Dark Void, there.

• Street Fighter IV: Final arcade code running on a heaping handful of arcade machines.
• Resident Evil 5: Game of show? Quite possibly!
• Dark Void: Also playable, also awesome. Snazzed up since CAPTIVATE08 and ready to totally jetpack your face.
• Bionic Commando: New areas and enemies, now playable on console!
• Mega Man 9: Put on your retro hats and prepare for a major challenge.
• MotoGP ’08: This year’s installment of the fastest-growing motorsport on two wheels. We’ll be running the 360 version.
• Neopets Puzzle Adventure: Surprise hit from CAPTIVATE08, we’ve got more to show on this puzzle adventure game created by the guys who brought you Puzzle Quest.
• Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix: A new batch of characters will be selectable for hi-def brawling.
• Plunder: Something new is happening with our digital pirate’s booty…
• Bionic Commando Rearmed: It’s almost out, and we’re showing it one last time.
• New games-on-the-go from Capcom Interactive, our mobile group
• Plus a new super-secret project, Flock!
